Feisty female featured in Tuesday column

The Nov. 6 outdoors column in The Blade will look at the life of Teri Reinhart, a hunter, angler, activist and quite possibly a political innovator who brought together two prominent outdoors factions and found they have a lot of common ground. She was of the "Green & Camo" party. Teri got involved in protecting our water and our environment -- a movement where women have done a lot of the heavy lifting -- and made it her life's work. Only bone cancer was able to stop this red-headed whirlwind, whose passion for environmental causes and her camouflage jacket confused some, but made many others smile.
